I'm trying hard to like Eclipse (or WindRiver Workbench as its badged)
at the moment. Having been arm-twisted into spending the 4 grand to
upgrade from our previous "soon to be no longer supported" environment.


It is so slow. (on a 3 gig machine) I seem to spen ages waiting for the
frequent lock ups to resolve themselves, and reading the "out of
Virtual memory" warnings.

Its funny isn't it? Sometimes you struggle with terrible tools for
ages, thinking its your own fault and that perhaps you don't understand
the wonder and beauty of the thing. And then looking back you realise
that it was a pile of cack all along.
